About this recipe
Method
30 min prep · 45 min cook
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Heat a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and sauté onion and garlic until soft.
Add spinach and cook until wilted. Remove from heat.
In a bowl, combine crumbled tofu, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, salt, pepper, nutmeg, and dill. Add the cooked spinach mixture and mix well.
Unroll phyllo dough and cover with a damp cloth to prevent drying out. Take one sheet, brush with olive oil, and place in the baking dish. Repeat with half the phyllo sheets.
Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
Let cool for a few minutes before serving.
